    This site enables you to create a speaking avatar. It can be used to teach characterization or for presenting information in which students need to use oral language. The avatar can speak from recording your voice over a phone or typing in text.

    This is a great way to make an avatar of yourself to add to a blog or website. I'm hopefully going to incorporate this into one of my projects for Mrs Hudiburgs class. Hopefully it will be as easy as it looks. So far it has been, just waiting for it to upload!

    I put a Voki on my blog last semester. It was fun to do and I could see some benefits if we could use it for students who have been absent or who may be home bound for some reason as well as the other possibilities.

    A great way to give a daily message to the students. Can have the students record lunch menu for the class to hear each morning.

    Voki is a free service that allows you to create personalized speaking avatars and use them on your blog, profile, and in email messages. I personally have two of them on my teacher website. Sometimes you have to spell phonetically in order to get the Avatar to pronounce things correctly, but other than that, it is a blast creating them.

    This is a bit like an avatar but it is more funny. Sometimes (If I can get lab time) I will let my kids do an "oral presentation" by using blaberize. There are lots of rules of course, but it is fun seeing them up on the smart board and the kids can get a little goofy with it.
